Does anyone have experience with gluten free?
I went to see my Gyn today for my annual and we talked about my inability to lose weight. Although she doesn't see a need for me to lose anymore, she did listen to my concerns about the weight gain I have had over the past year and some of my digestive complaints. She thinks I have an "unhealthy gut" and should try…

October Accountability & Weigh In
Hello October, hello multi-coloured trees & darker days (for those of us in the northern hemisphere)! For what it’s worth, it makes going to the gym a lot easier in the evenings! So far the thing that has stood out throughout the September thread (I am conscious we still have three days left) is that, despite a lot of bad…

Winter motivation?
It;s getting cold outside and I'm spending most of my time in a coat and big scarf (actually I think I'm spending most of it in a fluffy onesie..). However spending most of my time covered up and trying to keep warm from the cold and rain (I don't know what it is about Britain, we have a special kind of cold and gloom that…

Best leggings?
I am going to start a lifting program soon and I am in need of new leggings that are not see-through! I usually just use cheap Target ones, and they are decent enough for cardio, but don't pass the squat test. It seems like every pair I try on, you can see a panty line, even if they are skin-tone! I have heard from…

Any runners? Do you eat your exercise calories?
I have another 7lbs to lose and I'm trying to start logging consistently again! What do you do about exercise calories. I feel like I need to eat them, for example tonight I will be training with my athletics club, its going to be a hard hill sprints session. If I do that having only eaten 1200 cal I feel weak and cant run…

5'10" what is your goal size/weight?!
Heyoooo Tallies! I noticed the thread for the 5'8"ers and thought I'd love to hear some feedback from the 5'10"ers! It's pretty amazing how a 2 inch difference in height can make for some very different goals! Obviously age, frame size (large, medium, small), all play into it. Technically, I believe I am a hair under…

From 145 to 125 by March, 2017
I do an annual stairclimbing event (you run up 54 flights as stairs as fast as your legs/glutes and lungs can take you.) My goal is to reach 125 by the event in March. My "natural setpoint" seems to hover around 145ish. This is where I settle no throughout teen years, infertility treatments and menopause. I know that I…

Vanity Sizing insanity!
After a lifetime of being overweight/obese, I finally achieved a normal/healthy weight and have kept it off for four years. And, of course, with the help of My Fitness Pal and hyper-vigilance in my diet, plue exercise. Yay, me, right? Buying clothes now, while easier than at a size 20, still remains a mystery. There is no…

Looking for friends for accountability!
I've been using MFP on and off since I joined but I would like to be better about it. Even though I meal prep my goal is to log it anyways just to get in the habit. If anyone is good about keeping people on track I definitely need that. I'm looking to lose about 15 lbs so I know I need to be good about logging if I'm going…

Holiday Strategies?
I don't know about the rest of you, but for me, the combination of Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years always seems to torpedo my fitness goals. Treats are everywhere, and I want them all! On top of that, it's so busy that it makes it hard to get any exercise done. What strategies do you use to help you stay on…

Anyone running *and* lifting weights?
I'm finding it hard to limit my calories because I don't want to lose muscle, but at the same time I'd really like to drop 10 pounds so that running is easier and so I fit into my clothes better. I'm only 5'3", so the extra 10 pounds is actually a lot on my frame. I am currently lifting (pretty heavy) twice a week and…

Misleading water retention?
I'm 28, and seem to have a pretty easy time losing or gaining weight, according to my diet and lifestyle at any given time. But one thing that has become apparent in recent years is that it is *also* very easy for me to put on a lot of [what seems to just be] water weight, especially at times when my lifestyle is more…

Reached my self sabotage weight!
Good morning! So this morning I weighed 9st 2 ( 128lb). I'm now 40 and before having my two children, 13 years ago on my wedding day I weighed 130lb. I'm easily a U.K. Size 8 on the top and can sometimes fit a size 8, depending on brand, on the bottom. I should be really happy about this, but I'm not! Previously this is…

stuck
I did weight watchers for a year or so, my work paid for it. I quit ww and now I'm on my own. The last 15 pounds to lose, will not budge! I'm trying to eat 1490 cal a day. I do crossfit and taekwondo. I'm paying for premium, so my plan is, if I have to pay for it maybe that will motivate me to be more successful!!!

On body shapes
I hate the whole apple/pear/boyish thing, because we are individuals damnit!! Except I recently realized, after losing a good amount of boobage due to weight loss, that I probably have a "straight" or "rectangle" body shape. When I gain weight, it's always around my torso, and my waist hardly ever loses inches, and even…
